Re: How much redundancy do we get when RM goes broke?
Few of them in our office, start 45/60 mins early and skip their morning break then sit around bitching how slow everyone is. Managers always reference these creatures when you try to hand back. Selfish c***s screwing over their fellow workers.CRIBMAD wrote: ↑24 Jun 2023, 19:31I am so glad i am out soon - working with selfish c*nts like you did my head in , i bet you are one of the dickheads who come in early for nothing , run around the office like headless chickens, do not take breaks and work till all hours just so your manager will pat your arse and say well done lou my lovely ! YOU MAKE ME SICK !

Even with a yes vote, it proably won't be long before start times are made over an hour later anywayLouBarlow wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 07:57You pretend that voting no prevents any of that.

Re: How much redundancy do we get when RM goes broke?
Think it's 30 days notice and a maximum of 1hr in one hit so over the course of 90 days they could bring in the 3hrs later starts anywayrichietns wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:17It could be upto three they originally wanted with a no vote.SpacePhoenix wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:12Even with a yes vote, it proably won't be long before start times are made over an hour later anywayLouBarlow wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 07:57You pretend that voting no prevents any of that.

Re: How much redundancy do we get when RM goes broke?
Exactly. People seem to think that things will remain how they are now if they vote against the agreement. Starting times will change regardless, potentially by more than the one hour dictated by the agreement. Seasonal variation will still happen. Sick pay changes will still be implemented (RM have already stated this) and without an agreement, we will be facing this reality without more money to show for it.richietns wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:17It could be upto three they originally wanted with a no vote.SpacePhoenix wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:12Even with a yes vote, it proably won't be long before start times are made over an hour later anywayLouBarlow wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 07:57You pretend that voting no prevents any of that.

And when they get it all it will be is moan, moan, moan at the tax and NI that's been deducted from it.
I have never known such gullible people, RM know full well that all they have to do in any negotiation is to dangle the old lump sum money carrot and it's immediately chewed on. It really is their trump card.

Re: How much redundancy do we get when RM goes broke?
Fortunately we've only got a couple of extreme offenders, 45 minutes early everything thrown in including parcels loaded in the van, then there's the not so extreme offenders, in 10mins early to get the 1st tray of sequenced in before starting time, still no break, problem is these f***ers especially the extreme ones are finishing early, (the duties aren't easy it's just they're like machines obsessed with one thing only, finishing early) so of course there's now a rumour that the coms been told to lapse another duty, f***ing brilliant news for us older slowbies.toonshola wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:12Few of them in our office, start 45/60 mins early and skip their morning break then sit around bitching how slow everyone is.

Re: How much redundancy do we get when RM goes broke?
But they aren't doing it now as they proposed,we all know well most of us that changes are coming later down the line every business is forced to change with the economic needs and its a two year deal so highly unlikely they will do the 90 day thing.SpacePhoenix wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:20Think it's 30 days notice and a maximum of 1hr in one hit so over the course of 90 days they could bring in the 3hrs later starts anywayrichietns wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:17It could be upto three they originally wanted with a no vote.SpacePhoenix wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:12Even with a yes vote, it proably won't be long before start times are made over an hour later anywayLouBarlow wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 07:57You pretend that voting no prevents any of that.

Re: How much redundancy do we get when RM goes broke?
Your missing the point lou people (like me) have to much pride and are very stubborn.NOBODY is under the impression things will stay the same with a no vote.I would love the money and with 2 kids wife house etc etc I could do with it.But I have to much pride to take the money so I voted no just to see what happens nothing more nothing less.WE ALL KNOW the job is ruined so please stop trying to educate every adult on here who can quite clearly think for themselves.And yes I'd rather cut my nose to spite my face.LouBarlow wrote: ↑25 Jun 2023, 08:21Exactly.
